Asian Chicken Salad
Once you prep the veggies for this Asian Chicken Salad recipe, the steps to putting it together couldn’t be simpler. It’s one of those dishes that you can make again and again, keeping it in the fridge for easy lunches during the week. It’s chock full of healthy ingredients and flavor!
What I love most about this salad is that it holds up well even after dressing it. Plus, if you omit the chicken, it is a good salad for picnics and cookouts because it doesn’t contain mayo. For the dressing, this salad uses 4 simple ingredients: San-J 25% Less Sodium Tamari, olive oil, sweet chili sauce, and lime juice.
This crunchy, fresh salad is a winner!
